Claims (20)

CLAIMS:
1. A system comprising: a light detection and ranging (LIDAR) sensor, wherein the LIDAR sensor is configured to perform a scan of an environment based on adjustment of a pointing direction of the LIDAR sensor about an axis, and wherein the adjustment of the pointing direction adjusts a field-of-view (FOV) of the LIDAR sensor; a camera configured to capture images within a FOV of the camera; and a controller coupled to the LIDAR sensor and the camera, wherein the controller is configured to cause the camera to capture an image during an exposure time period, such that the exposure time period includes a time when the FOV of the LIDAR sensor at least partially overlaps the FOV of the camera.
2. The system of claim 1, wherein the controller is configured to cause the camera to capture the image such that a center of the exposure time period occurs when the FOV of the LIDAR sensor overlaps a center of the FOV of the camera.
3. The system of claim 1, wherein the camera operates in a rolling shutter mode.
4. The system of claim 1, wherein the camera comprises a plurality of rows of sensing elements, wherein each row of the plurality of rows is aligned with the axis.
5. The system of claim 1, wherein the camera is a first camera, further comprising: a second camera configured to capture images within a FOV of the second camera.
6. The system of claim 5, wherein the controller is further configured to cause the second camera to capture a second image during a second exposure time period, such that the second exposure time period includes a time when the FOV of the LIDAR sensor at least partially overlaps the FOV of the second camera.
7. The system of claim 5, wherein the adjustment of the pointing direction about the axis causes the FOV of the LIDAR sensor to sequentially overlap the FOV of the first camera and the FOV of the second camera during the scan.
8. The system of claim 5, wherein the FOV of the first camera partially overlaps the FOV of the second camera.
9. The system of claim 1, wherein the axis is a vertical axis.
10. The system of claim 1, wherein the LIDAR sensor and the camera are coupled to a vehicle.
